EEEeee! Turtles!! I've been trying to develop a good Ninja Turtle for Poser/D|S for years! This is wonderful! I'm getting a bit of a Dave Rapoza/Stjepan Sejic vibe, here, (Google to find their Turtles fanart) with some IDW tossed in. I will make definite use of this set, thanks so much! :-)

Heh, the timing was a happy accident, but the two products do sort of go together, don't they? ;) (I am always a huge fan of Joe's work and I really am astounded at the generosity of his freebie this year!)

Hm... maybe I need to do a "girl turtle" toon pic. Yes, that's wrong on many, many levels, but Genesis can do it, so why not? :lol:

Dali, the mutant who flunked Shredder's ninjitsu lessons.
(Thanks also ziggraphix, though I didn't try it out yet...)

I like the horse and gorilla combo!

Thanks for the interest and positive feedback on these guys. They were a real learning experience for me, the lessons from which you'll see reflected in my upcoming commercial products.

Anyway, here are a few of my favorite turtle renders that I did throughout the course of building the package:

Those pics are truly amazing! Were they rendered in DS? And what kind of light set did you use?
Thank you very much for the Turtles. I did a test pic with the Horo/Brinnen HDR using the zigraphix toon cam. I hope to do a proper scene in the coming days:

This is all totally awsome!!!! you all are very generous!!! as a poser user has any one been able to get turtle power to work in Poser??( I have been scannng the thread but I miss stuff ;) ) bef or I start trying to do so.

At the moment it is ds only. Both shell halves behave strange in Poser. Front shell is an easy thing to fix and update. Back shell has me a little puzzled. I hope to have a fully poser compatible version by the end of the month.

If you do want to experiment with it in poser, convert the shells, clothes and nun chucks into cr2s and the pizza and unrigged weapons to props. Auto conversion based on metadata generates some incompatibility errors.

thank you so much for the generous gift!

I cannot for the life of me get it to work, though. I've unzipped to the My Library folder and I can't find it when I open DS. Any advice?
